TRE/2025/0688 Approved

Proposal

I wish to have one (the only) Yew tree removed from my front garden. - The tree is close to and now touching the fence bordering next doors land. The fence is being pushed against the fence, this damaging it. - The tree takes moisture from the ground, making grass and adjacent plants difficult to grow. - The tree is now touching the telephone wire coming to my house which if broken may cause a health and safety hazard to passing motorists as well as young children who walk past my house to the nearby primary school. In addition, if broken, I would lose telephone and internet connection. Data via plota.co.uk
